Thanks Pine. I wasn't going to post to this one because others had done a great job (don't want to be redundant), but your complete job warrants a complement!
To all the good elves, and children of all ages...
Happy Christmas

Dasher - The first reindeer and the right-hand leader of the sleigh before Rudolph was included. He is the speediest reindeer.
Dancer - The second reindeer and the left leader before Rudolph was included. She is the graceful reindeer.
Prancer - The third reindeer and on the right in the second row. He is the most powerful reindeer.
Vixen - The fourth reindeer and on the left-hand side in the second row. She is beautiful, and also powerful like her companion Prancer.
Comet - The fifth reindeer and on the right-hand side in the third row. He brings wonder and happiness to children when Santa flies over everyone's houses.
Cupid - The sixth reindeer and on the left-hand side in the third row. She brings love and joy to children when Santa flies over everyone's houses.
Donner - The seventh reindeer and on the right-hand side in the fourth row.
Blitzen - The eighth reindeer and on the left-hand side in the fourth row. She is the "lightning" reindeer, but in American pop culture Blixem/Blitzen is frequently portrayed as a male.
Rudolph (the red-nosed reindeer)
Rudolph was the son of Donder, and was born with a glowing red nose, which made him a social outcast among the other reindeer. However, one Christmas eve it was too foggy for Santa Claus to make his flight around the world. About to cancel, Santa suddenly noticed Rudolph's nose, and decided it could be a makeshift lamp to guide his sleigh. Since then Rudolph has been said to be a permanent member of Santa's team, and leads them on their way.
Robbie
Robbie is Rudolph's son. He was created as part of an animated BBC Christmas comedy television special, that was made in aid of the charity Comic Relief.
Olive, the Other Reindeer
Although not actually a reindeer, Olive is a fictional dog who believes she might be a reindeer. In Matt Groening's 1999 Christmas special Olive, the Other Reindeer, the new character is added to the team to lead Santa's sleigh, at least temporarily. The name is a reference to the phonetic sound of the phrase, "All of the other reindeer."
